Open terrain and proximity to both river and lake frontage define the character of Coverdale, a US Forest Service campground set within Wallowa National Forest outside Joseph, Oregon. The site sits in exposed ground rather than dense forest cover, meaning campers should expect direct sun during the day. Nearby options include Ollokot Campground to the northeast, giving anglers and paddlers a reasonable base for exploring the surrounding waterways.
Description

This small rustic campground with 7 sites offers both tent and trailer sites near the river in an open ponderosa pine and fir setting. Popular activities include; fishing, day hikes, relaxing, picnicking and photography.
